6) Yes! This is what I've been asking in my previous post. In the morning, it tends to be noisy, but after that everything is well.

Ur 2wd should be faster right because it's lighter? 4wd gives better handling and grip but doesn't affect power and acceleration right?

i maintained at about 30 psi

32 / 34 psi the ride tend to be a bit too harsh and noisy

really? not even knowing its existence. my bad

you are right and it is here

sound nice.... but I'm from Sabah.... sob....

No. Mine was little grey.... Lol....

Ya, most ckd asx in Sabah is white. According to the SA....

Actually dtna7 is right. Having 4WD only serves to divide the torque and power to more driving wheels. With less power/torque at each wheel they become more manageable and all that power spreads across a greater surface for better traction.

It can't be called traction control because by definition traction control is controlling the amount of power and torque a drive wheel has, by braking or throttle feathering. Going from 2WD to 4WD is nothing like traction control. But, because it does make the car far more tractable it gives a bit like the effect of traction control, but not doing anything that a traction control does.

But, dtna7 can at least be a bit less on the offence (for a lack of a better word).    But hey, no hard feelings between you two, ay?

On a side note, for normal city driving it's better to be in 2WD. The engine will experience less frictional losses and frees it up from having to drive all 4 wheels. Therefore you save more fuel. Doesn't matter if the car is heavy with load, if you have enough traction stick with 2WD. If you're starting on a slope, the 4WD may help because in 2WD the ASX as I understand it is essentially a FWD, but if you already have momentum going to a slope even 2WD is fine (you hardly see any FWD vehicle spin their wheels after a run up to a slope do you?).

In heavy rain or driving on anything that you think will offer you less traction, use 4WD. Simple.
